Day 9 of our trip to NC

We got up this morning at 7:00 Isn't that unbelievable? Rob was the one sick now. He doesn't feel well. We went to take the stuff to James' and pick up the tarus for me to drive the rest of the way to NC. The Gifford Family postpone the family reunion for us. So we don't have to be home until Sunday night instead of Thursday night. which is good because of what happened next. We dropped the stuff off at James' and got on the road. Larry was supposed to be at work tomorrow,Monday. Today did not feel like a Sunday. We were about 20 minutes from James' and I noticed smoke coming from the rear wheel of the 5th wheel. I told Larry that he might want to pull over. Rob and Larry looked at it and just shook their heads. I knew it was bad news. The wheel bearing was so bad that it melted all of the plastic fittings . So we pulled off into the worst part of Chatanooga that we could of . We had to go to the bathroom and the convenant store next to us was the most discusting smell in the bathroom that I have ever smelled so I used the 5th wheel which I can tell you wasn't much better. It was in the 90's and we were all outside and poor Rob was trying to not to throw-up. They could not get it loose. They called AAA. They sent a toe truck that wasn't big enough so we followed him to his shop. We got a hotel for the night this is the kids playing while the dads worked on the tire.






Typical Spencer he didn't get what he wanted.


The kids got to cool off in the pool. We ordered pizza and watched a movie. What an exciting day. Now we won't get there until Tuesday.
